Chords for Moody Blues on The View 1999

[N] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ They are one of those rare [C] in the history of modern music.
[Gbm] Their sound can [Ab] instantly transport you to [A] another time in your [Eb] life, when you were [Dm] young, when you were [Gb]
wild, or maybe when you first fell in [Eb] love, for me, all of the above.
[G] Please welcome a truly [F] legendary band, the Moody Blues. _
[E] _ _ _ [B] _ [G] You guys [A] are so great.
[Em] I was telling you in the _ makeup room that I remember [E] distinctly when I first heard your music, Night and Some White Satin.
I was 14 years old, I was in France, and [B] my parents had [Fm] sent me there to learn the language, instead I met a boy.
And so that was my song, it was so important to me.
Great way to learn language.
[F] _ I learned a different kind of French, I guess.
But anyway, [G] my point is, _ [Gb] _ _
_ it's been 8 years since you guys [Bb]
cut an album.
You have been off with orchestras around the country performing.
Was [D] it fun to get back in the [Db] studio?
Oh, we had a great time.
We went to a beautiful studio in [Ab] Italy, in an old [A] house right on the [Gb] Ligurian coast.
[G] _ _
We were looked after by an Italian [A] family and we made beautiful music.
Just [Ab] the four of us back together like it used to be.
[Gb] I don't think that would be [F] hard, the pasta and the [Gb] wine all day long.
There you go.
[Db] Is that what helped?
Oh, [Eb] yeah.
Why do you think some [A] _ rock bands end up like vinegar and [Em] some end up like [Gb] fine wine, and you have ended [Eb] up like the latter?
Why do you think you [Ab] succeeded?
Good cork.
Good cork?
_ _ I think we got together to [F] make our own music at the very beginning and that's what we've done ever since the 60s.
[Gb] _ Everything we've ever _ recorded is what we've written.
_ [Ab] And that's the energy [Eb] behind us.
_ And when we [F] feel it's right to record a [E] new album, it's right [Eb] to take them on time.
And when you [D] play those old songs again, you're going to play one for us later, [Bb] are you transported back in time or is it just [Db] having to do it again?
No, no, no.
_ Those songs mean a lot to a lot of [G] people and they're part of people's lives and that's a lovely thing to be able to share.
And it does take you if you're [Ab] singing them right back to the place where you wrote it or you first [G] recorded it.
It's great.
We'd love to have you share a song with us right now.
So, you guys are getting ready?
You're going to [Eb] perform one of your classic [Dm] projects later.
The new blues, new CDs, Strange Times has all the makings of the [Db] future, best of the lessons.
[Eb] We're actually going to hear one of [Ab] the new ones [B] later, but for now, we've got a [A] wonderful, [G] wonderful song for you.
Get ready.
It'll take [F] you back to a different place in time.
[G] Here are the Moody Blues with Tuesday [C] Afternoon.

_ [Db] _ [G] _ [C] Thank you [Ab] guys.
The Moody Blues will be back later.
We'll [Db] sing their brand new hit and when we come back, [C] we'll all [Eb] get moody with more hot topics.
[G] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Everyone.
[Db] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [A] _ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _
_ _ [Gb] _ [C] Hi, everybody. _
[G] Judy [Am] and her husband, Judge [A] Jerry Shindlin.
Have a great day, everyone.
Take a [E] little time to enjoy the view.
But [A] first, back to perform English [Fm] Sunset off their [Bb] new CD, Strange Times.
[Gb] The [F] Moody Blues.
[Dbm] _ _ [E] _ [A] _

[F] _ _ [C] _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
_ _ I want to ride the range [F] across those skies of black.
[G] _ _
[A] _ _ I want to see for myself.
[F] You see me coming back. _
[G] When _ _ I've gone the [F] distance, I'll be making tracks for an English [A] sunset. _ _ _ _ _ _
[F] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[A] _ _ We're on a runaway train [F] rolling down the track.
[G] _ _
[A] _ _ Where it's taking us to, [C] who knows where it's at. _ _
[G] _ _ But if we hold together, [F] we can make it back [G] for an [A] English sunset.
_ _ _ I _
_ _ _ _ _ [D] feel the rhythm of the earth in my soul tonight. _
_ [G] _ _ They've never fade [Gbm] away. _ _ _ _ _ _
[Am] _ _ _ _ [D] And I've decided I can live with _ humility. _ _
[F] _ _ _ _ [G] _ And the sad [F] decay.
_ _ _ [Em] _ _ _ _
[F] _ _ _ _ [G] Because that's the [Am] English _ way. _ _ _ _
_ _ [F] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Dm] _ _ _ _ More tea, [Dbm] Baker.

_ _ They've never _ [G] fade [Gbm] away. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ And I've decided they can wait for the _ requiem. _
[F] _ _ _ _ [G] They take it day [F] by day.
_ _ [Em] _ _ _ _
[F] _ _ _ _ [G] Because that's the English way. _ _ _ _ _ _
